Has Anyone Seen Evolution?
Two questions immediately come to mind after evolutionists attempt to explain our world and we who live in it and ask questions about who we are and how we got here. First, who is this “evolution” person who did these things? Point him/her/it out to me.
When pushed, evolutionist would have to admit that no one has ever seen the invisible entity that has been named “evolution.” Is evolution like the Force of Star Wars that “surrounds us, penetrates us, and binds the galaxy together”?

Double standards?, nobody has seen, not just God, lots of things we don´t doubt they exist. And, just for the record, there is some evidence in the form of fossiles, DNA samples and, more expecifically, the fact that humans live longer than 40. If medicines were not tested in monkeys and animals we´re more or less related with by DNA, they would not have been applied to human beings. You are the living proof for the theory of evolution.
Evolution is a process, not a THING.
you can't SEE it, just like you don't see "Running". You can see someone, or something run, but the act itself isn't an object you toss around.
If you want to see evolution in action, your local hospital and dog kennels are good places to start.
If you ask an actual (note: not "creation") biologist to show and explain it to you, and do so with an open mind (that means be ready to question, not just that person but also yourself and your OWN beliefs) they will likely be more than happy to show you, and free you of some of the things your parents and priests have been repeating ad-nauseum into your head while telling you to put money in the plate "for the church" since your early days.
Oh, Jesus... NOT EVERYTHING NEEDS A FUCKING DEITY. Evolution is a process, not a conscious being. I'm certain that if you asked any credible scientist about this (or anyone who has a basic understanding of evolution), they would not feel pushed to admit that evolution is not a person. In fact, they would probably think you're a dumbass for thinking that evolution is supposed to be one.
Um, yeah. Evolution is just like the Force ... sure it is.
Dude, if you're not a troll, I'm worried for your mental health.
You'll see evolution if you look hard enough. Tall guy, bald, walks with a slight limp, but a spiffy dresser.
Has Anyone Seen God?
Two questions immediately come to mind after thiests attempt to explain our world and we who live in it and ask questions about who we are and how we got here. First, who is this “god” person who did these things? Point him/her/it out to me.

Fix'd!
"Has Anyone Seen Math?
Two questions immediately come to mind after mathematicians attempt to explain our world and we who live in it and ask questions about who we are and how we got here. First, who is this “math” person who did these things? Point him/her/it out to me.

Yep, Evolution can be watched on any beef farm or dairy farm.
There is no invisible entity named "Evolution" its a PROCESS, Not a person.
And no its not an invisible force that binds any galaxys, Its a process, A simple and readily observable process.
Random change combined with natural selection shouldn't be that hard to understand, but clearly it is. Random change is just that: random change. Natural selection means that if you do not die without breeding, your children get to play the game of life further. That's not a rule, you just don't get any children if you don't make any. When there's a right amount of random change combined with a right amount of selection pressure , things adapt, because badly adapted things that don't breed are out of the game, but better adapted things that do breed still have their children in the game. If you fall out of the game, you aren't well adapted to it by definition. Random change guarantees the things aren't all similar, but vary, which makes it likely some thing is better adapted than others. When the amounts of change and selection aren't right things don't adapt and possibly die. Things both adapt and die in the nature, but as long as something adapts and doesn't die, things keep moving. It's more complicated in reality, but that's the core of it.
Steve..? Stop calling Adam gay and poking him with that pencil and pay attention! Steve! I knew I used too many words. I guess it would have been much easier to just say God did it and Jesus loves you like your parents did...
He didn't express himself well, but it's a common fallacy isn't it? Essentially, that the alternative (in this case to creation) is so improbable and complex that he can't understand it or believe it, so there has to be an intelligent force behind it. Therefore, where is this intelligent force? I know there's a name for this fallacy but I'm having trouble remembering it.
Yes, I'm sure that's the one. Thanks!
There was a Bloom County once where a secular boy goes on his once-a-year rant and screams to the sky "The universe is just a little bit orderly to have been a big accident!" Then said something like there, I feel better now, back to reality. Something like that.
This guy likely knows evolution is not considered a person, but due to incredulity he's making a fallacious argument.

That's what you meant to say, isn't it?
Evolutionists don't "attempt" to explain our world. They DO describe diversity and adaptation of life.
Evolution is a natural process, like gravity or photosynthesis. Point photosynthesis out, if you can!
Evolution has been observed. Before the industrial revolution, the pepper moth was beige. During the industrial revolution it was dark gray. Now, when the work towards cleaner air is well on the way, it's reverting to beige again.
If these are the first questions that come to your mind, Stevie, maybe you ought to attempt to read a fifth grade Biology book, before you attempt to debate with educated adults?
“Has Anyone Seen Evolution?”
Yeah. Sitting next to my mother during the ‘always time for lubrication’ scene was a trip and a half.
“Two questions immediately come to mind … who is this “evolution” person who did these things? Point him/her/it out to me.”
Evolution isn’t a person. More of a scorecard. If the animal’s genes have changed between generations, we say it’s evolved.
“When pushed, evolutionist would have to admit that no one has ever seen the invisible entity that has been named “evolution.””
It doesn’t even require ‘pushed.’ Your little fantasy here is not real, so, no, we haven’t seen it.
“Is evolution like the Force of Star Wars that “surrounds us, penetrates us, and binds the galaxy together”?”
No, it’s more like the triptik from the road trip you took twenty years ago.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
